Schoenberg would have arranged it so that while one of us was singing the traditional tune, another would be singing it backwards. Another would be singing it upside down. A fourth would be singing it backwards and upside down at the same time.
Given that the instructions would have been in German, rather than the traditional Italian, none of us would have a clue what we were supposed to be doing anyway.
And that would not have made any difference at all to the resulting cacophony.
Give me old fashioned tonality any day.
A Findlay cake is a cake made by a Findlay, of course. And we have a student of that name leaving us this week. We have almost finished the Tabor biscuits from last week.
This time next year, we will, I hope, be enjoying confectionaries named Arthur, Lau and Melia.
Of course, the quality of confectionary has no bearing whatever on the references they get. Perish the thought.
Quantity, however...

I see what you mean lots and lots of candles, and that is only three quarters of the cake. I have had a slice or two 
and it still will not fit in the fridge.
What to do? eat some more?
cut it into smaller slices?
* scrutinises contents of fridgerator *
Oh yes, I know, take this, (who does it belong to?) 
out of the fridge, now there is room.

Evenings!
I'm just trying to get used to the notion of starting a 60 mile bike ride around about this time next week. I may be on here next Saturday posting the most absurd drivel.

Le't see if anyone notices the difference.

"Wake up" "Wake up Doc"...your train is at Victoria...
Don't forget to practise carrying your bike up stairs for the mid-point rest at Gatwick Airport, in Costa or NERO

Andouillette, I think.
Never had it, fortunately my dictionary is explicit enough (unlike some friends, who though it was just a sort of sausage).
Never seen horse on a French menu, really want to try that.
If I'd remembered to post it before I came in here, instead of needing to remember to post it in the way out, I'd have just entered the Big G Grimpeur des Wolds 60k event...

Afternoons!
I have just finished a little light fettling and wheel replacement.
I now have a GT Nomad that appears to be in working order, although I'm keeping a wary eye on the forks.
I might see if I can get them NDTd at work.
Many thanks to ladyrider100, both for the bike and for a well-timed cup of leafy goodness.
